This was illustrated in a BOF museum display some years back. No photographs. I managed to find this one online but there was also another vertical rear design that I’ve never been able to find again. Would be great to see a good resolution image.
All the other denominations from 1961 were reissued with modified designs in 1991, except for the 25. The colouring is quite nice - certainly better than the original 25. Shame it was never issued.
The German car is unsurprising, but it’s a long and complicated drive from St Petersburg to southern Turkey.
Waiting for the smart remarks in 3, 2, 1…
The 100 million didn’t turn out so well.
